Ed Balls has no worries about ‘Strictly curse’

Ed Balls has revealed his wife Yvette Cooper has no worries about the “Strictly Curse” - and is more interested in learning his dance routines.

The former Outwood and Morley MP, who is partnered with Katya Jones, said Ms Cooper plans to learn all his dances when he finishes on the show. He said: “What she wants to do is the Charleston. We will be practising all through December and Christmas, so if we have any weddings coming up we can perform it.” Over the years, the ‘’Strictly Curse’’ has seen marriages and relationships ruined when celebrities fall for their dance partners. But Mr Balls said: “Not at all. Yvette’s view of that is, ‘In your dreams.’”
